“Overpriced and under-aired”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 August 2009

This is a nice enough place, but not really worth the money charged. The room itself was clean enough, with sheets and towels provided, but the bathroom incredibly damp, which created a nasty smell. There is a nice shared kitchen area and an outside patio, but guests are asked to move away after 10pm for noise reasons, and there isn't a real communal area inside.

Breakfast is included and is a good way to meet your fellow guests. The family is friendly, if somewhat inefficient. I was lucky to arrive just before a serious overbooking meant that many guests spent one night on sofas and mattresses on the floor. There is pressure to sign up for their day-trips, and you may find yourself somewhat less favoured if you don't sign up to everything going.

“If you have to go to Dubrovnik, this is as good as any...”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 July 2009

Good things first:
Great wifi, (and a computer for ungeeky travellers!) Kitchen, commonrooms, balcony, projector and movies, somewhat reasonable tours. (snorkling etc.) Barbeque area, nice people. The family that runs the place is very nice and warm, and speaks good english.

But before you go to Dubrovnik, know that:
Dubrovnik is ridiculously expensive... It has become a syntetic amusmentpark for overspending careless Tourists. Unfortunately, this has become my impression of the city, and the same reflects on this hostel. Every little thing cost an extra euro. Want a to put you camera in a safety boxs? 1 € a day.. Internet? Sure!, 10 min pr person per day - after that its 5 kuna (ca 1€) pr 10 min. The WiFi is free:)

Dont get me wrong, its a good hostel. Its the city itself that is stupidly expensive. (And I just dont like hidden costs).
So, if you really feel the need to do the same as the other hundreds of thuosand of tourists, you probably wont find anything much better than this one.
- Its pretty much the same price as everywhere else ca 23-24€
- Its quiet at night for those that want to sleepbut its not overly central.
- It has loads of tour-offers
- It has a great staff.
